Hi, just another question in case HA is not configured at all.
by “HA configured” I expect you’re referring to the “Highly Available”
checkbox in Edit VM dialog.
If I run the "shutdown -h now" command on an host where some VMs are
running, what is the expected behavior?
Clean VM shutdown (with or without timeout in case it doesn't complete?)
or crash of their related QEMU processes?
expectation is that you won’t do that. That’s why there is the Maintenance
host state.
But if you do that regardless, with VMs running, all the processes will be
terminated in a regular system way, i.e. all QEMU processes get SIGTERM.
From the perspective of each guest this is not a clean shutdown and it
would just get killed
Aleksey is reporting that he started a shutdown on his host by power
management and the VM processes didn't get roughly killed but smoothly shut
down and so they didn't restarted regardless of their HA flag and so this
thread.
Thanks,
